For every murder that is solved in Ireland, at least one more remains unsolved. With unparalleled access to the Garda Cold Case Unit, Cummins explores the new investigations into some of Ireland's oldest and most shocking unsolved murders. With forensic detail, Cummins charts the last five decades of unsolved killings, including: Unsolved: the 1981 fatal shooting of Lorcan O'Byrne, who was targeted by robbers on the night he was celebrating his engagement. Unsolved: the murder of Grace Livingstone, who was found shot dead in her Malahide home in 1992. Unsolved: the abduction and suspected murder of Brooke Pickard, who was last seen in Co. Kerry in 1991. Unsolved: the killing of 12-year-old Stephen Hughes Connors, who died in an arson attack in Tallaght in 2001. Cummins also charts the re-investigation into the first case to be solved by the Cold Case Unit: the killing and secret burial of Brian McGrath in Westmeath in 1987.
